fix(tools/git): restore executable bit on new per-agent-identity scripts

core.filemode=false in this worktree meant the initial commit recorded
git-credential-mosaic, test-git-credential-mosaic.sh, and
test-gitea-token-identity.sh as 100644. git invokes a path-configured
credential.helper directly (exec, not `sh <path>`), so git-credential-mosaic
must carry the executable bit; the two test scripts match the 100755
convention already used by the other test-*.sh harnesses in this directory.

-
-Root cause this exists to guard against (#828 version skew, restated from
-the C1 activation probe in ``lease-activation-probe.ts``): the lease
-broker's ENFORCEMENT half (this toolkit — ``launch-runtime.py``,
-``mutator-gate.py``, ``revoke-lease.py``) and its ACTIVATION half
-(``execLeaseGatedRuntime()`` in ``launch.ts``, which chains the gated
-runtime through ``launch-runtime.py`` and injects ``MOSAIC_LEASE_*``) ship
-on different channels — an npm package and a framework/CLI reseed. C1 gave
-the activation half a versioned, machine-checkable identity
-(``LEASE_ACTIVATION_CAPABILITY``, printed by the CLI's hidden
-``mosaic __lease-capability`` subcommand). That identity is inert on its
-own: nothing yet asserted that ENFORCEMENT actually requires the version
-ACTIVATION advertises. This module is that assertion, owned by the
-enforcement side.
-
-``EXPECTED_ACTIVATION_CAPABILITY`` below is this toolkit's own contract
-declaration — bump it only when this toolkit's launch/gate seam starts
-requiring a different activation contract (new env vars it depends on,
-changed chaining behavior, etc.), independent of any package semver, for
-the same reason C1's constant is: #828 happened precisely because a
-version number that should have moved did not.
-
-This module never talks to a real broker or a real installed CLI in its
-own tests — both the probe's command resolution and its ``run`` transport
-are injectable so tests can drive every branch with fakes/stubs (see
-``version_coupling_unittest.py``).

-"""Red-first tests for issue #869 Point-1 C4 — the enforcement/activation
-version-coupling assertion at the `launch-runtime.py` seam.
-
-Root cause under test (#828 restated): the lease broker's ENFORCEMENT half
-(this toolkit) and its ACTIVATION half (`execLeaseGatedRuntime()` in
-`launch.ts`, chained through `launch-runtime.py`) shipped on different
-channels and drifted. C1 (`lease-activation-probe.ts`) gave the activation
-half a versioned, machine-checkable identity
-(`LEASE_ACTIVATION_CAPABILITY`, printed via the hidden CLI subcommand
-`mosaic __lease-capability`). C4 (this module + `activation_version_gate.py`)
-is the assertion that actually USES that identity: enforcement must refuse
-to proceed — loudly, with an actionable remediation message, never a
-silent pass — unless the activation capability it observes exactly matches
-what enforcement expects.
-
-Every case here drives the seam with injected fakes/stubs (a fake
-`probe_activation_capability` callable at the `launch-runtime.py` level, or
-a fake `run` transport at the `activation_version_gate` level) — never a
-real broker, a real installed CLI, or a real `mosaic` binary on PATH.
